Download or read book Harold s Bride written by Charlotte Maria Tucker (a L O E ) and published by Echo Library. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tucker (1821-93) was a prolific English author and poet for children and adults who wrote under the pseudonym A.L.O.E. (A Lady of England). Her earliest writings were plays and poems to amuse her family and in 1847 she took charge of the education of her brother's children, her first published work, The Claremont Tales (1852), being written for them. Her work as a children's author was imbued with her Evangelical religious beliefs and most of her stories were allegories with a clear moral, though rendered with a degree of realism and naturalism. Many of her more than 150 titles appeared initially in magazines before publication in book form and she often devoted the proceeds from her writing to missionary or charity work. Her realistic portrayals of the poor were drawn from her experience as a workhouse visitor in Marylebone, but her most interesting stories are set in India where she worked as a self-supporting missionary after leaving England aged 54. She worked in a boys' school and as a teacher of Christian beliefs to native women and died in Amritsar in 1893. Reprinted from a posthumous edition of 1902, this is the story of a missionary's wife, which the author intended to give guidance to those thinking of embarking on a similar path.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harold's Bride: A Tale Many years ago a huge panorama of a vast extent of country was exhibited in London. Of what country it was memory retains no clear impression; but I recollect a remark made by the exhibiting artist Referring to the tints of some hills pictured in the panorama, he observed, "They ought to be natural, for I took my materials from the hills themselves." The artist's remark had slight weight, for the fact that he had used pigments taken from the actual soil was no warrant for the accuracy of his delineation; but I am reminded of that remark by the circumstances under which the following tale has been written. It was not penned in some study in London, nor in some rural home in an English county; the authoress was living, as it were, surrounded by the materials needed for her picture. The old missionary came in heated and tired from the daily round in zenanas to dip her pen and write of a zenana. The materials for her touches of natural history lay, as it were, at her elbow. She might feelingly picture little inconveniences which she herself had experienced. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Diseases Disorders and Diagnoses of Historical Individuals written by William J. Maloney and published by Anaphora Literary Press. This book was released on 2015-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oftentimes, people look at famous individuals and think that such people are exempt from the physical limitations that bind us all as humans. Unfortunately, many times celebrities themselves think this is true. A stark reminder of this is the effects of substance misuse that have claimed the lives of too many young, otherwise healthy, luminaries in the prime of their lives. This book provides a background on each disorder or disease and, in so doing, shows the real humanity of the individual. Such is the case with baseball icon Lou Gehrig who was newly diagnosed with ALS, but truthfully believed that he was still the luckiest man on the face of the Earth. Little known facts are provided which enables the reader to feel like the subject has come alive as a real fleshandblood person from the pages of a history book. A never before seen letter from General George Patton is presented. In this letter, General Patton describes the author’s uncle as “brave.” Why did Patton have a near obsession with bravery—both that of his soldiers and himself? Was it because of the fear and humiliation which Patton himself spent a lifetime overcoming as a result of his dyslexia?
